Claim struck out
Unfair Dismissal, Discrimination and Whistleblowing
Heard at London East
All claims were struck out because the unfair dismissal and whistleblowing claims had no reasonable prospect of success, and the reasonable adjustments claim was not actively pursued.
Legal Issues (3)
- The key legal issues were whether the ordinary unfair dismissal claim had reasonable prospects of success given the admitted gross misconduct and the reasonableness of the employer's decision
- whether the automatic unfair dismissal claim under section 103A ERA could succeed given the alleged protected disclosure (GDPR complaint) was not in the public interest and not the reason for dismissal
- whether the failure to make reasonable adjustments claim under the Equality Act 2010 should be struck out for lack of active pursuit
